“Jiga-chan” Posts on VIP Board Seeking X Followers — Original Songs and Art Spark a Reaction

From our other sites

The story

On 5ch’s “Nnews VIP” board, a poster who calls themselves “Jiga-chan” revealed their X (Twitter) account and started a thread calling out, “Anyone want to connect?” The poster shared original music within the thread and also pointed to a separate account where they post artwork, trading messages with other posters about their age and creative process. They say they usually draw digitally, but plan to try an analog collage piece for a December exhibition. Some commenters, however, questioned whether the account was really genuine and whether it was okay to follow without asking, sparking a side discussion about how to treat a self-introduction that originates on an anonymous message board.

Unlocked it.

Re: #61
B-based on the style of this art, is Jiga-san 25 or younger?
64AnonymousSep 14, 2026 19:10
You seem like you'd be pretty good at pixel art too…!

Nice! I want you to draw lots of girls lol
78AnonymousSep 14, 2026 19:18
Does Jiga-chan draw digitally?
I hear coloring's easier that way!
82AnonymousSep 14, 2026 19:19
Re: #78
I usually draw digitally, but for the exhibition I'm planning to make an analog collage~
83AnonymousSep 14, 2026 19:20
Re: #82
So you can do analog too~!!
Getting to show work alongside all kinds of people sounds fun, but it seems like it'll take a lot of energy 😭
86AnonymousSep 14, 2026 19:22
Re: #83
Yeah~ but analog is harder…
I'll do my best for the exhibition
84AnonymousSep 14, 2026 19:21
Re: #79
I draw girls and androgynous characters~
96AnonymousSep 14, 2026 19:25
Re: #84
Compositions that break down halfway into pixel art… have that "yumekawa" (dreamy-cute aesthetic) vibe going on, so good 🥰
85AnonymousSep 14, 2026 19:22
Do you draw "otoko no ko" (boys who look/dress like girls)!?
88AnonymousSep 14, 2026 19:23
Re: #85
Sure, I'll draw one lol
I'll draw an otoko no ko with wings

Background and Talking Points

Threads like this pop up regularly on the VIP board — a genre where someone identifies themselves and asks for social media followers — and there’s no way to verify authenticity beyond the poster’s own word. Details like age, occupation, and working style are all based purely on the poster’s own statements, with no third-party confirmation available. Some commenters in the thread voiced doubts, asking “Is this really them?” and “Is it okay to just follow without asking?”, making the question of how much distance to keep from a self-introduction that started on an anonymous board a loose but recurring theme. Aside from that, the actual back-and-forth — reactions to the original songs, talk about art style, plans for the December exhibition — stayed friendly small talk throughout, with no sign of backlash or conflict. Readers should keep in mind that posts like this are ultimately just self-reported claims on an anonymous board, and neither the linked account’s authenticity nor its connection to the thread’s original poster has been officially confirmed.
